Wits researchers report on a new phenomenon in magma chambers called “magmatic karstification”.
Magma chambers are large bodies of molten rock located several kilometers below Earth’s surface. They are difficult to study in real-time because of their vast distances from the surface of Earth. Geologists examine the igneous rocks that form when these magma chambers cool and eventually become exposed at Earth’s surface due to the forces of erosion, to understand the processes that occurred within the magma chambers millions of years before.
A new study published in Scientific Reports by postdoctoral researcher, Dr Willem Kruger from the School of Geosciences at the University of the Witwatersrand, and his supervisor, Professor Rais Latypov, challenges some of the most widely accepted ideas regarding the inner workings of magma chambers.
